Lsd
I am in the process of building a T-Bucket and I think I would like to have a limited slip. Now, I've heard some guys say ya don't need one in a car that light. I am not sure on that. I don't want to spin the crap out of one tire when I do a smoky burn out!
What say you? Pros, cons. It will go in a 10 bolt S10 rear diff. Suggestions on what unit to buy.
Thanks, Fellas

When i read the title of the post the first thing that came to my mind was the 60's & 70's...

Eaton. Having said that, i am wondering if you have ever driven a posi before. They can be a little treacherous in a light vehicle when going around a corner.

Eaton's Detroit TruTrac is the ultimate, IMO. No friction wear points, no additives, tough as nails and smooth as silk.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

I don't know why, but a non posi will light up both tires if you get it spinning fast enough. My Son Don's T bucket has a non posi and it lays down two even black stripes when he hammers it.
I've said the same thing as the guys about how a posi can drive a light car straight ahead on turns, but I haven't seen that with my 27. It has a Trackloc and hasn't had that tendency at all so far.
